After the release of various Chaos sets for the Warhammer: The Old World tabletop game, a wave of corruption swept through Warhammer Studio – the creative core and creative department of Games Workshop. To appease the mighty beings of the Warp, the team presented their paint schemes for miniatures from these boxes.
Danny began his project by painting two large units – one of Marauders and one of Chaos Warriors. In the Marauder unit, he combined models with hand weapons and shields with models armed with flails. This mix clearly shows opponents the unit's equipment and perfectly emphasizes its barbaric and untamed nature.
And the Chaos Lord mounted on a monstrous two-headed dragon became the miniature Danny enjoyed painting the most. He found it satisfying to apply skills honed in previous projects while working on such a stunning centerpiece model.
For Quinn, the new Chaos Warriors were a real gift. They subtly reference the plastic Chaos Warriors from the nineties and finally allowed him to try his hand at recreating the 'Iron Wolves' described in White Dwarf issue #290.
He formed the core of the regiment with 17 warriors, joined by an army standard bearer and a unit of Chaos Knights led by a champion. Assembling all the models simultaneously also allowed him to swap heads, shoulder pads, and shields between the warriors and knights.
Dave has always been a fan of Chaos Warriors, whose armored silhouettes tower over brave heroes or noble enemy knights. Personally, he prefers the armies of wild Undivided Chaos – the very kind that seeks to destroy civilization and plunge the lands into darkness.
He painted his fighters in colors that give them a primal and bestial look – as if they have completely surrendered to absolute destruction.
